Tender and juicy baked skinless chicken thighs seasoned with a simple blend of herbs and spices, perfect for a healthy and flavorful meal.
8 skinless, boneless chicken thighs (about 1.5 pounds)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken thighs in a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat evenly.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the chicken thighs and rub it in to ensure all pieces are well coated.
Arrange the seasoned chicken thighs in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a lightly greased baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken is cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
